Egg bhurji is inspired by South Asian cuisine. They add spices in everything man! I never tried this just because my mind was not accepting the idea of having too much spices in the egg for breakfast but then I tried a cheese omelette at one of my best friend’s home where she put cumin and coriander in it and OMG Yessss! it was great. So from there I got inspired to try this at home and it came out so perfect. Here is the recipe for you, if you are traumatised by the idea of having all the spices in egg, believe me its not bad at all, go with my believe and try this ❤ I am sure you will love it!

Melt some butter in a pan or heat some oil. Add onion and cook until its translucent. Add tomato and cook until tomato loses the stiffness and then add green chillies and mix. Add egg mixture and let it sit for 1 minute in the pan to let it cook from the bottom until we scramble it.

Add some cheese at this stage if you want to otherwise mix and scramble the egg. DO NOT OVERCOOK. Keep it moist and take it out in a plate. Serve with light rye toasts and enjoy.

Greek omelette is one of my favorites. It has got all the essential from Greece; olives, feta, capsicum, etc. everything. This omelette is a full treat for weekend breakfast or brunches. Try it this weekend and enjoy with your family and friends ❤

Avocado & Poached eggs on Toast is one of our family favourite breakfasts. Its healthy, its light and the creamy texture and taste of avocado is just perfection and the hint of lemon in avocado is absolutely divine…… Trust me!

Ayesha’s Kitchen

Ingredients:

2 thick cut bread slices (I use “Lawsons – Traditional White” in Australia you can get whichever one you like)

1 good ripe avocado

1 lemon

A pinch of parsley

Some butter (to toast)(at room temperature)

4 eggs

Some water

1 tbspn distilled vinegar

Some salt and pepper to season

Procedure:

-Heat your oven to 200 degrees Celsius.

-Smear the butter on your thick cut bread slices and put them onto a baking tray and bake for about 5 – 10 minutes or until the toast is rusty and crispy.

-Meanwhile make your avocado spread. Take out the avocado in a bowl and mash it. squeeze some lemon juice, sprinkle some parsley and mix.

-Take out the toasts from oven, let them sit on a cooling rack until we get our eggs poached.

-For poaching the eggs, fill your 22cm saucepan half with water and bring it to a boil. Add distilled vinegar. Now crack the egg in a small bowl and very carefully take it near the boiling water. Dip half of your bowl in the water and leave the egg in the water. Do same with other eggs. Let them cook for 30 seconds and then remove the saucepan from the heat and cover it for exact 3 minutes.

-Now with a slotted spoon take the eggs out and put them on the plate.

-Whisk well. Adjust your seasonings and melt some butter or heat some oil in the frying pan. Use a reasonable frying pan, non-stick and good sized.

-Pour over the egg mixture and wait until it spreads. Do not touch, flip or do anything at this point. Lt it spread and cook on low medium heat.

-When the edges start turning white sprinkle your mushrooms and cheese. Leave it for 30 seconds to a minute and then fold the omelette. Carefully flip it if necessary otherwise after some time remove from the plan onto your serving dish.

-Add potato slices, spices and chopped tomato and cook covered for about 10 minutes on low heat until the potato is tender. Don’t add any water, let the potatoes cook in the moisture of tomatoes.

-When it starts looking like a simmered curry, crack in 8 eggs and mix. Break the yolks and cook on low medium heat until the eggs get scrambled. Add green chillies and coriander and serve hot with parathas or white bread slices.
